    If he excludes oil from the tarrifs, we should increase the price of oil exports ourselves.

    I hope we throw in somethingn into the retaliatory package like vehicles entering the Canadian boarder need to be zero emissions, those trying to enter with non compliant vehicles will have them seized at the boarder.

    That alone should keep most riff raff out of Canada.

      As funny as this is, in practice we want them coming up here to spend money.

      What we’ll do, like last time, is tariff in a very targeted way, hitting specific products where consumers have easy access to alternatives. Like slapping tariffs on bourbon, for example.

    Surely putting tariffs on about 60% of American oil imports will do wonders for their gas prices.

      I’m stocking up on rice and beans and survival foods as the next great depression is about to drop. If it doesn’t? I got a decade of camp food.
